    @alexwild I’m sure it is! It’s just that the image of the creature(s?) came out resembling (at least to me) what a lazy AI would mash together for a generic arthropod. (Alternatively it could also be from the Burgess Shale.)

      @alexwild
      Animal on the left is a mimicking spider predating on the ant on the right. The ant in being held by the neck with its head pointed to the bottom right

        @alexwild it’s a spider, right? The missing leg is just to make the game even harder.

          @alexwild@mastodon.online My first thought was it's a worker ant carrying a dead sister, but oh when I saw what was really going on!

          A mimic spider eating!

              @alexwild They’re forming a larger mecha by combining their spiny armors?

                  @alexwild ok the stump of the missing leg seemed like a big clue to me but for some reason I still didn't process it as spider until I reread and saw the hashtags. the spider is just too good

                        @alexwild my first guess would've been AI generated trash but clearly mother nature found out about the existence of cubenesis mushrooms and decided to get wild with ants?
